Online support

Approach-focused online therapy that fits your life

Saudia often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method in online work. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives concrete strategies to change patterns that cause distress. The Gottman Method guides conversations about how people communicate and manage conflict, with practical exercises to rebuild connection and reduce recurring fights.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Saudia will listen to your concerns, review what has or hasn’t helped, and suggest techniques that match your goals and preferences. Together you will try methods and adjust them based on how they work in your daily life.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so therapy can fit into busy schedules. Video is useful for in-depth work and exercises, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can support quick check-ins or shorter reflections between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep regular contact and maintain momentum toward your goals.
